The article that I saw today was contradicting itself. In one place it said that there are 3 mutations and that vaccine might not work on it, and in another place that it should.

My understanding is that at this point we don't know yet. The actual testing would probably require a vaccinated person to be exposed to that strain.

Chances are that vaccine is probably still fine.

yes, as with all the other variants they should just say "we don't know yet, let's find out", but instead they defer to some scientific language of "no evidence that it protects" that the general population cannot relate to
